Network coverage of former President Trump has been overwhelmingly negative since the second assassination attempt against him Sunday, according to one report.
Analysts at the Media Research Center (MRC) reviewed 69 minutes of campaign coverage on the ABC, CBS and NBC evening newscasts between Sept. 15 and Sept. 17.
MRC reported that although the thwarted assassination attempt took up 70% of all campaign news on the networks, a significant amount of that coverage was negative towards Trump.
“Over the three nights, we tallied 21 evaluative comments about the GOP candidate, 20 of which were negative, which computes to a 95% negative spin score,” the MRC reported.
